Methods, systems, and computer readable media for increasing the rate of established network connections in a test simulation environment

A non-transitory computer readable medium having stored thereon executable instructions that when executed by a processor of a computer control the computer to perform steps comprising:

• generating, by a network equipment test device in a test simulation environment, a random integer;
• designating, by the network equipment test device, the generated random integer as a first twin prime value in the event the generated random integer is a prime number;
• designating, by the network equipment test device, a generated sum of the first twin prime value and a designated value as a second twin prime value in the event the generated sum is a prime number;
• generating, by the network equipment test device, a custom key certificate pair that includes a public encryption key and a private decryption key using the first twin prime value and the second twin prime value;
• and
• decrypting, by the network equipment test device, at least one message received from a device under test (DUT) using the private decryption key.
